If you have to upgrade your GS3's wheels from stock, what size would you use? (18, 19, 20) Also what is the perfect setup with zero camber problems?

I think 19's look the best. I thought about 20's for the longest time but IMO 19's with c/o just looks wicked.

I went from 18ss to 19s to 20s then back to 19s and then to another set of 19s. I am staying with 19s, even on my next set

I guess if you want to stay with 0 camber, then you get 20's and not lower the car. 18s and 19s would look odd when a GS is not lowered.

I'm very happy with my 19's. Now, how wide should they be? I'm running fairly narrow widths, 8" all the way around for 3 reasons. One size tire, rotation of all 4 wheels and that's as wide as this rim was made.
